FedEx Custom Critical cuts rates on cargo vans

I am not happy with your post

 

think his parody is a long way of saying that it would be VERY hard to get by and raise a family with those rates...

true - it may have rubbed some the wrong way - but look closely at what companies advertise - and what you wind up with.

There is an ARMY of guys out there that live like that -

and those guys with few responsibilities tend to not only ruin our Image - but also our rates.

 

Good your not suppose to be happy with it.....

No one likes to hear the truth............

 

#### one pissed off trucker - your my new hero

 

Hell I can get 90 cents a mile delivering school buses. I know I have to buy my own fuel and pay my way home. But I wouldn't have any truck payment and repairs.

 

I would imagine school bus deliveries would be getting pretty thin...

especially since most school systems are about broke etc etc.

I lived in Richmond Indiana for many years - and that was the home for "wayne Works" which became "carpenter bus company" (now out of biz)

I remeber an old neighbor that would drive new bus' all over the place for delivery...


what companies are left??

Bluebird? LaFRance?

 

International school buss's are still going strong in Conway Arkansas.

 

hmmmm...

are they "owned" by international (navistar) - or is that just the name

"International"

I have seen navistars logo on the front of buses - but figured a 3rd party provided the bodies.



anyway



back to topic.


Anyone have a breakdown on what the operational cost of a cargo van is?

not super detailed - but a general list of per mile / per year cost

I am trying to determine if it is even something to consider in the future - or if it is a scam.

 

are you kidding?..lol....alot of these owners dont even no how much it costs to run per mile let alone how much workers comp costs..lol...good luck
